Episode 7: More Than the Mind - The Spiritual Side of Healing
For the last 10 years, I have completely distanced myself from spirituality. After being part of a religion earlier in life, I became reluctant—skeptical even—of anything beyond what I could see and understand. But this past year, I watched my wife, Cassidy, embark on her spiritual journey, and despite her experiences, I wasn’t ready to follow.
In this episode, Cassidy joins me to share her perspective on my resistance to spirituality and what it was like for her to witness my hesitation. I also share an experience that completely shifted my perspective—my meeting with a medium named Dani Lama. What I thought would be just another conversation turned into something that fundamentally changed the way I see life, healing, and connection.
Spirituality has made a lasting impact on my mental health, bringing me peace in ways I never expected. Whether you’ve struggled with belief, walked away from faith, or are just curious about the role spirituality can play in healing, this episode is an honest look at what happens when you open yourself up to something greater.

Episode 6: Princeton's Story - Five Days That Changed Everything
In this deeply personal and emotional episode, I share the story of my son, Princeton-his birth, his fight, and the five days he spent battling for his life. Born premature, Princeton showed more strength in his short time here on earth than I ever could have imagined. He was a fighter. But despite his fight, I had to face a reality no parent should ever endure- losing a child.
For years, I buried my grief, ignoring the pain of his loss. I suppressed the heartbreak, thinking I had to be strong and continue forward. But grief doesn't disappear-it lingers, shaping who we become.
This episode isn't just about loss; it's about love, resilience, and the silent battles we carry. It's about how Princeton's short life changed mine forever. And it's about the power of finally facing the pain we try so hard to ignore.
If you've ever experienced loss, if you've ever held in grief, or if you've ever wondered how to keep moving forward when life breaks you- I've been there too.
